i have to resist the urge to ask what year that was. my interest in grooming/culture/trends brings out this curiousity. love how the window and eye color work together! was Miss Lawson still in summer stock back then?

My goodness! What type of cameras did they have back then? How did you transfer them to electronic format?

I figured I woild add my $.02 in on this thred.
The picture was taken at a week long missionary conferance in New Wilmington PA. I was working there as a recording engineer at teh time, and was in a weird mood (had been up for 3 days without sleep). I have a dorkier picture, if you want to see me with my vintage Ikegam Hl79e video camera and Sony BVH-500a 1" video tape recorder on my shoulder.
I love this site, very cool restorations, I don't do washers yet, just old radios tv's and computers, video equipment too (1/2 EIAJ open reel anyone)

It's me!!
Lawson reporting in from the Crown Plaza at the San Francisco International Airport.
That is a photo of me in 1939, right after I did "Moonglow". Thalberg said the studio was having a really bad year but my film helped save the careers of 1000's and the studio.
(How about 1981, truly on the way home from Key West! We were fried but as usual my hair held up.)

vintage cameras
I'll show you mine if you show me yours...vintage Ikgami camera that is!!!! After all, we're into vintage cameras now it seems like!
This picture was taken back in the winter doing very much the same you were doing in yours! I was doing both sound and video for a friend's band. I didn't have the battery pack that attaches to the camera, so I was running it off of a big 12 volt gel-cell sitting on the floor!

You guys all look too normal
Nope, uh uh, can't post a pic. Too fat, too bald, and where did these puffy eyes come from? Well, some of you probably saw my silly website so you know already.
Hoover--I made some of my first 8mm movies on a similar B and H camera that my dad has. Lots of fun.
Steve--my wife's desk is the same Wakefield Executive Desk that you have, different chair. My "return" if you will, is a Wakefield Student desk, believe it or not, in original Wheat finish.

Movie camera
That camera is my dad's, the one used to capture us kids on film when we were growing up. I believe it was purchased shortly afer I was born in 1964.
I know he still has it, the brand is Kodak I think.
Marty: The hair was Chachi, and high maintenance!
Where were you??? We would have been in High School at the same time right?

well, IMHO Little Veda has missed alot...
Never will Veda know what it feels like to walk into a store and see(and touch):
Hoover Dial A Matics or metal Convertibles
Center Dial Maytags
Hobart made Kitchenaid
TV's without remote
The appliance department in any major department store(Hell even Kmart was excitiong back then!!)
That makes me feel sorry for the poor thing...

Don't forget...
Living without computers
Tylenol without all of the safety precatuions
Cell phones (well, kind of)
Betamax
Renting telephones from the phone company
Well made American cars
Indoor plumbing ;-)
I don't mind having missed all of the above things you mentioned, Jeff... I can live vicariously through you (and Helen, Ida, and all of my other appliance friends). That's what friends are for!

Living without computers -
...and hand-held calculators!
How fast time flies -
Life outside the cities was very different not so long ago. My grandfather told a story about he and his twin brother building a crystal radio from a kit ordered from Sears, Roebuck when they were 8 years old and the very first thing they heard was news of the Titanic sinking. Married in 1930, my grandparents didn't have indoor plumbing or electricity on their farm until after WWII. It wasn't even an option. Until they lost their farm in the Great Dust Bowl of the mid-30's, they used a small gas engine to operate some farm equipment, had a gas-powered Maytag "Gray Ghost" washer that also churned the butter and used a wood stove in the kitchen. My mother remembers the wood stove in the kitchen even when they lived in town - natural gas was not available until well after WWII. Electric service was slow coming as well, I remember my grandfather upgrading their electric service box to 100 amps from 50 which allowed them to have air conditioning for the first time - in the early 70's!

More importantly........
Miss Veda missed the entire era of the Cadillac fins, the FIRST and ORIGINAL run of fabulous Hoovers starting with the 63, (all she can push around are hand me downs!), and flying when are the Stewards and Stewardesses were gorgeous and the traveling public was still civilized........."Please pass the caviar, would you care for another glass of Moet? No thanks, but the truffle mousse' pate is delicious! This stretch DC-8 is so much nicer than the Electra."
Need I EVEN say anything more?
Now you can see how time has marched over this face and body. (However the earrings are so cute!) And what an awful thing to say to such a big star like me. I'll go out the way I came in............

Mark & Charles
On Father's Day this year, I was in L.A. visiting my daughter (and missing the VCCC convention). We tracked down Charles Richard Lester who was also missing the convention. Charles is a world-class thereminist and we enjoyed a theremin performance at the church where he is the music director. My life is complete. Note: I am on the left and the thermin is backward for the pose. Charles is a left handed thereminist like Bella Lugosi.
